| Summary / Abstract (Note) | China’s activity in Africa is the expression of some grand strategy. In reality, its activity is contingent on the regime, economic arrangement, and political circumstance in each country. That’s why China is equally willing to work with an authoritarian government and a democratic government. If we don’t put Beijing’s actions in the context of its behavior globally, it is too easy to see it as exceptional and ignore the local conditions that induce its actions. At the same time, China’s “neutrality” is not benign. It’s simply contingent on the promotion of state sovereignty and the absence of political conditions. |
